The Wish

The Wish

There's nothing wrong with Wilma Sturtz. She's perfectly nice. But nobody cares about nice at Claverford, her middle school. Wilma is left out, forgotten, ignored -- until she meets an extraordinary old lady who grants a wish: for Wilma to be the most popular kid in school. Presto! Everything changes. Now Wilma has more best friends than she can keep track of and forty dates to the Graduation Night Dance; and someone is writing her love poetry. What more could she want? Nothing! But will it last? How can Wilma make sure she is never unpopular again?

From Gail Carson Levine, author of the Newbery Honor book Ella Enchanted, this modern-day fairy tale shows a very real girl in a very unusual predicament, and along the way it reveals some painful truths about whether or not we really want to be liked for who we are.

  • A way to get a rating on the book without common sense media.

    It is a great book. The only part I disapproved of were the scenes of kissing, which are described mildly. Other than that, it is a good book!! Please write a sequel. Other books by this author which I enjoy are Ella Enchanted, and fairest. Great books for anyone and Everyone. I love this book, and Ella Enchanted, And Fairest. It really is a great book.

    I am 10 and I am a huge reader and fantasy lover. This book didn't really stand out to me, but I still liked it. I would read it again.😌
